Notification You will not be provided with separate notification each time we receive a wire transfer/ACH into your account. We will provide you with notification of incoming wire transfer/ACH as part of your periodic statement. In the event we accept to your account through one or more Automated Clearing Houses (ACH), the operating rules of the National Association (NACHA) will be applicable to ACH transactions involving your account. These rules do not require we provide you with next-day notice of receipt of an ACH item. As such, we will also provide you with notification of the receipt of these items as part of your periodic statement.

From the date, you first received notification from the credit union, either when the order was accepted or your account was debited with respect to the order, you hereby agree to notify us in writing of any unauthorized or erroneous wire transfer requests within 30 days or 60 days for ACH origination transactions. Should you fail to promptly notify us of any unauthorized or erroneous request as discussed above, we will not be liable to you for any subsequent similar occurrence we could have prevented had we received such notice.

Choice of Law We may accept on your behalf, payments to your account that have been submitted by or Federal Home and are not subject to the Electronic Funds Transfer Act (Regulation E). Your rights and obligations with respect to such transfers shall be governed and construed in accordance with Regulation J, Subpart B-Funds Transfers through Fedwire or Federal Home Loan Bank, and the applicable Bank Operating Circular. Whenever an ACH is used as part of a transaction that does not involve Fedwire, the rules of that ACH will govern that part of the transaction. Where none of the above-stated rules applies, the laws of the State of Texas, including Article 4A of the Texas Uniform Commercial Code, shall govern the transactions contemplated by this agreement.

Your account will be charged an excess usage fee and may be subject to closure if you exceed these limits. Please see current Fee Schedule for excess usage fee.

Fees We will charge you a fee according to the current Fee Schedule for each request you give to us. If wiring instructions you provide are incorrect and the wire transfer/ACH origination is returned to us for any reason, you can provide us with the correct information that will permit us to execute the request again with no additional charge to you. Community Resource Credit Union makes no warranties with respect to fees charged by other financial institutions with respect to your requests.

Provisional Credit Credit given by us to you with respect to an ACH entry is provisional until we receive final settlement for the credit entry through a Federal Reserve Bank.

Your Liability for Incorrect information If you give us a request identifying a beneficiary (the person to whom you are wiring funds) by name and account number or some other identifying number (such as a Social Security, Taxpayer I.D. or driver's license number), we may pay the beneficiary on the basis of the number provided to us by you and consider that number to be proper identification. This will be true even if the number you provided to us identifies a person different from the named beneficiary, unless otherwise provided by law or regulation. If you give us a request identifying the beneficiary's financial institution in the funds transfer by name and Routing and Transit (R/T) or other identifying number, we, as well as the receiving financial institution, may rely on the number provided to us by you as the proper identification. This will be true even if the number provided identifies a financial institution that is different from the named financial institution, unless otherwise provided by law or regulation.

Your Liability for Rules Violations If you initiate an ACH Origination transaction, your liabilities shall include, but are not limited to, the amount of any fines assessed against Community Resource Credit Union for a rules violation caused by you.

Limitation of Liability If we are ever obligated by law to pay interest on the amount of a transfer, you will be paid interest on a daily basis equal to the current dividend rate that is otherwise applicable to the account from which the funds transfer should have occurred. In the event we are ever liable to you for damages due to a transfer, your damages will be limited to actual damages only. We will not be responsible for incidental or consequential damages, court costs or attorney’s fees, unless otherwise provided by law or regulation.

If you make a request, which instructs us to, wire funds to foreign countries, we assume no liability as to the length of time necessary to complete such a transfer, provided we have acted in good faith, with ordinary care, and in compliance with applicable law.
